Chapter 29: The Great Curtain
readx;
The failure of the Moonlit Night Raid apparently made the Great Cannibal see the status quo. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Da Liang is definitely not comparable to those small countries that have been wiped out by the Great Eclipse, in this Eastern Continent, the rule-maker is not the Great Eclipse, not the Hu people, but the Great Liang!
The big cannibal finally gave up his unrealistic idea, and while guarding against the Liang army, he honestly waited for the arrival of the army behind.
The Hu people are coping with a headache on the grassland, trying their best to think about how to keep more livestock alive, and they have no intention of jumping out to stir up trouble until the weather warms up.
Yongzhou also sharpened his knives and hurriedly prepared for war, as long as the weather warmed up, he would attack on a large scale, suppress the Hu people, and eliminate or expel the big cannibals.
The northwest, which was complicated, suddenly became tranquil, and there was no sign of a major war.
Of course, everyone knows that the killing machine is just suppressed by the cold of the northwest, and all parties are silently accumulating strength.
Now, it's just the calm before the storm!
........................ The situation in Yongzhou City was eerily quiet.
Guo Liang was like admitting defeat, without the slightest intention of competing with Chu Nan or taking revenge, and even rarely showed up in normal times, hiding in the mansion and not seeing anyone at all.
Chu Nan was also a little strange, he didn't take the opportunity to win over people's hearts and suppress dissidents, but instead seemed a little indifferent and arrogant, so that those who had the heart to take refuge in the past were also full of suspicion and did not dare to act rashly.
However, Li Zhen finally won the favor of the vast majority of people with his superb martial arts skills and elegant demeanor, and he was busy making friends and going to banquets all day long, becoming the busiest person in the huge Yongzhou City.
Time flies quickly, but everyone knows that it is impossible for Yuzi to be so tepid forever.
Finally, just when the ice on the river outside Yongzhou City began to melt and the weather began to gradually warm, Yongzhou City finally ushered in a little change.
General Yang Shouye has returned to Yongzhou!
.................................... In fact, seriously speaking, it should be regarded as spring now, at least in the south of Daliang, it is already spring.
The northwest is still shrouded in north winds and bitter cold.
However, everyone knows that Yang Shouye, the most trusted military general of the Great Liang Emperor and known as the pillar of the Great Liang army in the next twenty years, arrived in Yongzhou, which is a sign that the cold air in the northwest is beginning to dissipate and spring is coming!
.................................... On the huge school field in Yongzhou City, three thousand carefully selected elite soldiers are working hard.
The school field was dusty, the sound of killing was shocking, even if the weather was still very cold, the soldiers were only wearing a close-fitting layer of short shirts, and their bodies were sweating, obviously the intensity of the training was extremely high.
Chu Mad slowly appeared in a corner of the school field and watched quietly for a while.
These 3,000 people are all cavalry, and Chu Nan personally selected the elite soldiers from the Yongzhou army.
Now, the 3,000 men were carrying iron spears repeating the action of charging and stabbing, a melee weapon scimitar hung from the saddle, and most of them were carrying crossbow arrows or large bows, a hodgepodge that made it completely impossible to see which class to belong to.
Chu Nan and Guo Liang seemed to have made an appointment, and they were surprisingly low-key in the past.
Guo Liang hid in the official documents of the government office, and the south of Chu was impatient to train these three thousand people.
Many people questioned Chu Nan's intention to train these three thousand people, and even Leng Yun and Dugu Qiu, who often followed the training, were full of suspicion.
When Chu Nan was asked, he just smiled and didn't answer.
Chu Mad heard Chu Nan vaguely mention it, but he really couldn't believe it...... Scold...... Is the crowd tactic killing the grandmaster...... Chu Mad was suddenly full of expectations for these three thousand people.
.................................... Chu Nan quickly noticed Chu Mad as well, looked at the sky, and ordered the training to end.
The three thousand soldiers, who were still murderous and morale-high, suddenly cheered, and then they all fell to the ground and gasped for breath.
Chu Crazy smiled, this kind of training intensity is too great, and there are a lot of complaints in the army, if it weren't for his own efforts to suppress it, I'm afraid that someone would have made trouble a long time ago.
Leng Yun and Dugu Qiu also came over breathlessly, first respectfully saluted Chu Maziane, then waved their hands to Chu Nan, and left to rest with their shoulders hooked.
Chu Nan looked at the bright and somewhat dazzling sun and asked, "What's the matter, is there something wrong with me?"
Chu Mad watched the soldiers slowly disperse, and said with a smile: "Someone has come to sue again, saying that you are too strict in governing the army, it is simply not training but torture, I always have to come over and pretend to see......"
These 3,000 soldiers were forcibly snatched by Chu Nan from the two parts of the most elite Black Armor Army and the Golden Armor Army.
Chu Nan personally trained, but it was only a little more than a month's effort, and hundreds of people were eliminated, and dozens of people had to retire and leave the army due to injuries, so that the entire Yongzhou army was secretly afraid of Chu Nan.
Chu Nan licked his chapped lips, chuckled and said, "If you don't polish it, you can't make it, and you can only become a master if you suffer hardship......
Chu Yan smiled, and he didn't mean to stop Chu Nan, and couldn't help but remind: "Don't spend too much effort on this, I doubt that Cheng Shu has a ...... or not."
Chu Nan lowered his head and smiled, sighed and said with a wry smile: "I will also try it if I have half of it...... Otherwise, it's too difficult...... It's the only way I can think of it......"
Chu Mad stopped persuading, and changed the topic and said, "By the way, I came to tell you that your father-in-law will be able to arrive in Yongzhou at noon at the latest......"
Chu Nan nodded, but he was not very happy about Yang Shouye's arrival.
Yang Shouye is not there, with Chu Nan and Chu Mad enough, he is firmly enough to control all the affairs of Yongzhou, and he is not afraid of anyone's provocation.
However, when Yang Shouye returned to Yongzhou, with his transcendent identity and super high prestige in the army, he would immediately be able to establish absolute authority in Yongzhou, and when the time came, Chu Nan and Chu Mad would have to hand over control of Yongzhou.
Chu Nan sighed and said with a smile: "I hope it brings good news......
.................................... Yang Shouye's prestige in the army is too high, it is not comparable to a rising star like Chu Mad at all, and he is an absolute close minister of the Son of Heaven, which is much more genuine than Chu Nan, the so-called envoy of Emperor Liang.
Now, General Yang has finally gotten rid of the chaotic chaos between Korea and China and returned to Yongzhou, which must have brought Emperor Liang's final deployment and decision to the northwest.
At noon, Chu Nan, Chu Mad and Guo Liang and other prominent figures in Yongzhou gathered at the gate of Yongzhou, ready to welcome Yang Shouye's arrival.
Guo Liang and Chu Nan pretended not to see each other, and stood far away in tacit understanding.
The others, according to their status, stood on either side in turn.
The defenders on the tower of the city quickly confirmed the identities of Yang Shouye and others outside the city.
With a shout, the huge city gate slowly opened with a loud rumbling sound, and Yang Shouye rode a horse into the city gate slowly, with dazzling sunlight behind him, which instantly illuminated the dim and gloomy doorway.
The curtain has begun!
